2- Bruce Cummings. CC. Investments. (Hwy 40

and Mill Rd area)

Thom Wright has Bruce Cummings’ (of CC

Investments) property listed for sale and is here,

representing Bruce, on a fact finding mission.

Bruce’s property is located on Highway 40 and is

about 2.6 acres. Webb’s’ have used the property as a

trucking dispatch center for about 40 years under a

non-conforming use permit and do not currently

have a business license with the town of Daniel. When Daniel incorporated as a town this

property was already zoned as RA5. Because he, Thom, has the property listed for sale, he

wishes to give prospective buyers the correct information about how this property may be used.

What is permitted in a non-conforming use area? Chairman Bunker referred him to the town

code; 8.21.01 (which can be found on the town website) for non-conforming uses.

Commissioner Hobbs explained that the board has not zoned this area commercial

because of lack of infrastructure and roads, etc

Commissioner Binkerd asked how they proposed to access this property. Thom explained

that they already have access from highway 40 with UDOT approval.

Thom will report back to Bruce about the code and see if they have a business license

they might have obtained from the county before the town incorporated or an exemption.

3- Jim McCleary (stop work order discussion with planning commission members) and

others notes.

A “stop work order’ was issued back in October 2009 on Jim McCleary’s property,

located on Teancum Court, because the work he was doing did not comply with his current

building plan. Jim is supposed to get his new plans to Ryan this week.

Ryan Taylor explained that there have been complaints about the old Hunt Country

Ranch on highway 40, across from Storm Haven, doing a lot of big equipment work on the

property, They checked and found that a new uncovered riding arena was being installed. No

‘stop work order’ was issued as no permit is needed. There are new owners of this property.

Ed Huston has not yet replied to Eric’s letter concerning work being done on property

located on Highway 40 between 3000 South and Little Sweden Road. However work has

stopped.

Richard Willis wants to turn his barn, located at 975 West 3000 South, into a residence.

He is willing to do whatever is needed to comply with building codes.

The Callister subdivision and permit have been approved.

An application for a school has been submitted. They will build a site plan meet, with

Ryan Taylor, and follow up by obtaining letters from the Fire Marshal and Health Department.

The property is located at 1776 on the south side of Little Sweden Road, third west from

Suburban Propane. The applicants, Sundance Canyon Academy, want the school for learning

disabled students. Eric brought this application before the Town Council asking for clarification

on the town code which was provided and the Council said to move forward with the application.

Sundance Canyon Academy has hired Washburn Smith to represent them.
